Welcome to the Sellwood Middle School PTA 

The PTA Welcomes you to Sellwood Middle School!


Do you have an incoming student at Sellwood Middle School?  Please consider joining the Sellwood PTA!  This is a great opportunity to be involved.  We work to raise money for electives, staff appreciation, and other programs the school needs.  We also organize community events to bring together families.  Email us if you would like to join or have any questions.  sellwoodpta@gmail.com

We look forward to welcoming you into the Sellwood community.


SMS PTA welcomes you to our wonderful school community and would like to ensure you that we are here to help make this a great place for every student and family. 

We are a group of parents, teachers, volunteers and students who work together to help coordinate, organize and support school related activities and events in Southeast Portland, Oregon.

We engage in fundraising, which in turn helps to support field trips, during school and after school programs (such as Band, Marimba, art and PEAK), classroom support for teachers, community building events and much more.

In addition, the PTA provides a strong voice for the Sellwood community – advocating for needed educational programs and improvements.

We have many fun activities planned for the 2023-24 school year and there are many ways to help to support our school community.
